Because of the heightened alert due to the COVID-19 pandemic, St. Josaphat’s Bingo is suspended until April 17, 2020
We thank you for your patronage and for helping us build a wonderful Bingo community.
We have decided to suspend our Bingo operations for the rest of the month of March. This is being done to protect the health of the players and our volunteers. Because of the long gestation period of the virus before symptoms show up (or even the lack of symptoms in those who carry the virus but are not affected) – we cannot risk exposing people to the potential hazard it represents.
As per the County Health Department’s request to limit gatherings of over 50 people – we believe our best path forward is to follow this guidance. We appreciate your understanding with our decision and hope to see you back in April when it is hopefully safer to return to normal group activities.

From the Pastor

Welcome! Вітаємо!

We wish to welcome all of our friends and guests who are attending our 49th annual St. Josaphat Ukrainian Festival! This year our Ukrainian Festival is quite different! Because of restrictions due to the Coronavirus, we are not able to bring you Ukrainian Entertainment, our famous vendor tent and  other venues which you may have enjoyed. Fortunately, we are able to provide you with the staple which has made our Ukrainian Festival famous—our delicious Ukrainian Food!  
Thank you for your kindness, your patronage, and good will. If you see a volunteer, thank the volunteer, they are the one’s who make this Festival possible! It is hoped that we will be able to resume our full Festival next year. If you have any questions about our Ukrainian Heritage, culture, history and wish to gain knowledge of our beautiful Ukrainian Catholic Church, please feel free to stop by St. Josaphat’s for Sunday Divine Liturgy. We look forward to meeting with you and we welcome you with open arms!
